Thank you very much to Tim Ridyard for the excellant work provided on a matter now finally closed. This solicitor was really efficient on solving the problem already at the early stage, and very helpful on clarifying the full situation with its possible consequences. We would highly recommend Ashtons Legal.

Narinder Rathour

Tagged solicitor Narinder Rathour

I found myself in a complete nightmare of a situation and because I was so blindsided, I foolishly chose to interview with representation which left me in the dark for 6 months and unable to get representation until I got charged. I contacted a couple of solicitors who didn’t fill me with any reassurance and the Mr Rathour entered my life, he is so knowledgeable, I had been fixated on a matter that had happened while I was in cells and Mr Rathour brought me back done to earth in a kind and reassuring way, and focused me on how he felt he could clear my name. And while this whole situation had been extremely me mentally, Mr Rathour guided me through it and gave me much needed strength and encouragement to get through it, and yesterday, he cleared my name and lifted the heavy weight I’d been carrying around with me. With his vast knowledge and experience, he very quickly came up with a plan and it was a success. Such a lovely guy to be around, very supportive, straight to the point and fun in the right moment when my mood needed lifting. I could not have done this without him, in fact, I’m not sure I’d still be here at all such was the turmoil in my mind. A true gentleman with tenacious legal prowess.

Michelle Breindel

Tagged solicitor Michelle Breindel

Michelle Breindel defended me when I was in big trouble. Michelle was efficient , knowledgable and courteous. I was facing a adjournment to crown court and even an immediate prison sentence. But I only received a suspended sentence and the matter was dealt with that day. I would recommend Michelle to anybody who finds theirselves in trouble with the criminal justice system . Thanks Jason Roberts

Digby Johnson

Tagged solicitor Digby Johnson

I just wanted to sincerely thank Digby for representing me at crown court in a very stressful and difficult time. His professionalism and compassionate approach resulted in a better outcome than I'd experienced. Also to all the staff from The Johnson Partnership who I dealt with through my case. Thank you all.
